Classic tune! I always think of that and Stevie Wonder's Living For The City as perfectly capturing the melancholy and joyous grandeur of city life😎✌❀

The first time I heard NYSoM was Streisand's version
and I was blown away at this great song I hadn't heard before.
Joel wrote a real classic song with this one.

Yup, love Streisand's version, too.

On the other hand I find the version Streisand and Joel did together almost unlistenable.

One of my favorites! Was just listening to a version today with Billy Joel and Tony Bennett...surprisingly good! It's a song I hope there's a Prince cover for in the vault. πŸ’œ
